Crushed.

What are some names that you get crushed on the inside when you see it being used?

I just seen a post where this girl is putting Lorraine in her top names... It is breaking my heart. I feel like its MY name and no one else should use it. I know that is not the case, but its what I feel.

Eliza and Oliver. I don't know why but every time I see a post about them I get really irritated and jealous, especially with Eliza. Its not that I feel like they are "my" names, but that this person is using them and I might never have the chance to. Like if I can't have my Eliza, then no one else can. I'm like the spoiled brat of names.

I know it's childish, but it irritates me a little bit that my name, Addie, is becoming so trendy. People seem to be giving it more these days, and using it as a nickname for full names like Addison and Adeline. I'm 26 years old, and needless to say, my name was vanishingly rare when I was growing up. I was always the only one with my name in my schools. Now, seeing it pop up everywhere as this trendy, cute little girl name of the new millennium, I just think to myself, "Hey, that's MY name! And besides, adults can have it, too!"

TTC in the fall.
IN LOVE with Bryony Kathleen and Caroline Rose.
Boys loves change all the time! Dilemma.

I feel this way about Callaway. I cringe every time I see someone considering Calloway because it's my obscure family surname. Nobody else is allowed to use it unless they're also a Calloway. *grouchy face*

I feel this way with Lila and Maeve! I don't get it as much with boy names because I don't fall as much in love with boy names as I do with girls. But everyone in my family and immediate friend group knows that Lila and Maeve are MINE!
